10 Chapter 10
Children seemed to be particularly afraid of blood. That child was scared, Zhou Baixi was scared, and only Chen Ying looked stupidly at her uncle who was frantically trying to take her to the hospital.
She was not afraid and not panicked at all, but it hurt a lot because her tooth was knocked out.
Now that I think about it, Zhou Baixi must have been pretty scared at that time.
Chen Ying plucked up the courage to send a message to Zhou Baixi.
Chen Ying: [Do you still remember the stars?]
Zhou Baixi quickly replied: [The stars can only be seen at night.]
Chen Ying was stunned and explained, "I'm talking about the star that my classmates called me when I was little."
Zhou Baixi replied: [I know, we can only see each other at night.]
Chen Ying remembered that tonight was Friday, and she had made an appointment with Zhou Baixi to check in at a food restaurant together every Friday night.
Chen Ying: [But we just had dinner together last night.]
Zhou Baixi: [You already ate in the morning, so you have to eat again in the evening. We ate together last night, so we can't eat together tonight?]
...seems to make sense?
But what does this even mean? Chen Ying thought. They were just high school classmates, not even close friends, yet they often get together. Even if they're both single, if this continues, will the rumors start to swirl again?
Zhou Baixi must have thought of it too, so why doesn't he care?
Chen Ying suddenly thought, since he didn't care, could it be that he also liked her a little?
As soon as this thought came to mind, a feeling of shame followed. Chen Ying secretly glanced at Song Xia opposite her. She was still battling wits and courage with Li Hao and didn't care about Chen Ying's current embarrassment.
Even through the screen, Chen Ying still felt embarrassed. Fortunately, no one could hear the inexplicable thoughts in her mind, otherwise she would regret chatting with Zhou Baixi.
Another message popped up in the chat box: Zhou Baixi: [Have you visited your uncle since you came back?]
Chen Ying replied: [No. Did you tell him I'm back?]
Zhou Baixi: [No.]
Then he added: [He misses you very much.]
Chen Ying also missed her uncle, she just didn't dare to go. If her uncle knew she was back, her parents would know.
She didn't want to go back, and sending money home every month was enough for her.
As for her uncle's house, she didn't dare to go there. Wu Qianqiu's existence was a shadow to her, and half of her anxiety came from Wu Qianqiu.
[Do you still remember Wu Qianqiu? ]
Zhou Baixi brings up things that are not related to the topic.
Chen Ying's fingertips stopped just as she was about to type. Those three words were like a demon, making people feel disgusted at the first sight.
The phone was turned over and placed upside down on the table. Chen Ying endured for a long time before picking up the phone again. Zhou Baixi had already sent another message.
[He had asked me to protect you at school before.]
Chen Ying didn't want to reply. She felt sick when that person's name was mentioned.
She suddenly became curious again. Did Zhou Baixi listen to him and start protecting her at that time?
[So you listened to him and started protecting me?]
She thought so and asked so, but just as she sent the message, she felt it was inappropriate and was about to withdraw it, but Zhou Baixi had already replied.
He said: [No.]
He said: "I protect you because you are Chen Ying. You are a star."
Chen Ying smiled and said, "When you first found out I was a star, you were very upset."
There was no conversation on the other end for a long time. Chen Ying stared at the big words "The other party is typing" which appeared and disappeared over and over again. Half a minute later, the words disappeared and he did not reply.
The group notified her of a meeting, so Chen Ying sorted out her folders and temporarily forgot about Xingxing.
Later that night, Zhou Baixi came to pick up Chen Ying. He waited downstairs for a long time but Chen Ying didn't come down, and he called her but she didn't answer.
He stared at the chat page between the two, a little dazed.
Zhou Baixi was very noisy when he was a child. In order to find someone to restrain him, his parents sent him to a dojo run by a friend and asked him to learn Taekwondo from Uncle Wu.
On the first day of learning, Zhou Baixi showed great interest in Taekwondo.
If Xingxing hadn't been injured by the kick, he would probably have continued learning.
Later, he often thought that if he hadn't kicked Xingxing, Xingxing would not have stopped going to the gym.
He wasn't even given a chance to apologize.
Zhou Baixi was a stubborn person. The more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt. Later, when he went to the gym again, all he saw was Xingxing with blood in his mouth.
He thought that learning Taekwondo would hurt his good friend, and vowed never to touch Taekwondo again.
But since then, he has never seen the stars again, and this person and this name have gradually become a source of worry for him.
【As for the stars, I still feel very regretful until now.】
【sorry. 】
After sending these two messages, he looked up at the sky. The moon appeared without him knowing when, and it had already emerged from the clouds and was visible in the distance.
An hour had passed since Chen Ying got off work, but she still hadn't come downstairs.
He waited silently.
We had extra work arranged for tonight's meeting, and everyone was so busy that they didn't leave until it was time to get off work. The two interns, Chen Ying and Song Xia, also voluntarily worked overtime, and no one left.
Didn't even glance at his phone.
An hour and ten minutes after getting off work, Chen Ying finally had some free time to check her phone, only to discover that she had a missed call from Zhou Baixi.
There are also 99+ WeChat messages.
She suddenly remembered that today was Friday and she had made an appointment with Zhou Baixi to have dinner together, but she was so busy that she forgot.
She opened WeChat anxiously, and only two people sent her messages, including Ye Jinyi 99+ and Zhou Baixi.
In Zhou Baixi's line, the three words "I'm sorry" are particularly prominent.
Her heart seemed to tremble uncontrollably. She didn't know why he suddenly apologized or what he was apologizing for.
The last time someone apologized to her was eight years ago. The three sincere words he said made her feel extremely disgusted and disgusted!
So this time, why are you apologizing, Zhou Baixi?
Although she was very reluctant, Chen Ying still clicked it.
【As for the stars, I still feel very regretful until now.】
She saw it.
I felt strangely relieved, but also a little sad.
Chen Ying: [I had to work overtime and forgot to tell you. Sorry.]
Zhou Baixi: [It’s okay, I guessed it.]
Chen Ying suddenly didn't know what to say next.
Zhou Baixi didn't send any more messages.
Chen Ying: [I don't know what time it will be added to. How about you go eat first?]
Zhou Baixi: [Okay.]
When Chen Ying saw this message, she had just taken a sip of water and was caught off guard and choked, and started coughing continuously.
I thought he would be persuaded... sure enough, it was still Zhou Baixi.
Chen Ying coughed quite loudly, and everyone looked at her at the same time. Song Xia was even more worried and ran over to help her calm down, asking, "What's wrong, baby?"
It was at this moment that someone finally realized that no one had eaten dinner yet, and started to suggest ordering takeout together.
The important task of ordering takeout fell on Song Xia. She waved her hand and agreed immediately.
A senior had a weak stomach and ordered very light meals, but the restaurant was a bit far away and the seller refused to deliver. Song Xia secretly glanced at the senior, but she couldn't bear to ask her to change the dishes. Just as she was worried, she suddenly noticed that the restaurant was located in the same area as Li Hao's.
then:
Song Xia: [Brother, please help me.]
Li Hao: [I'm so honored that Miss Song can actually use me!]
Song Xia could almost imagine the smug look on the opposite side's face.
Li Hao: [Go ahead, what are you doing? I'm free right now.]
Song Xia: [Send me a takeaway.]
Li Hao: [……]
Li Hao: [Death smile.]
Li Hao has always been quick to act, and he quickly packed the dishes and delivered them to the downstairs of Song Xia's company.
He saw a particularly familiar figure downstairs of the company.
"Zhou Baixi?!"
